Not sure what he used to make the bow and quiver out of? It looks like osage, that what most use? The quiver could be beaver or otter?

I talked with Scoot and he wasn't sure what it was either, but it's from a tree he cut on his own property. Ray is 71yo and likes to build his own equipment, the arrows are wooden and he cuts his own wing feathers and dyes them and makes his own flint broadheads, the bow is about 50# bow. Scoot said he'd talk to him and see what he used to make them out of.

thanks but it's more curiosity then anything. appreciate everything about this, bow, quiver, fletching (now that you pointed them out) the kill and the picture.

It was an Osage bow. He is in the prosess of building a new one, another Osage bow, with Dogwood arrows, and he is knapping his own broadhead arrow tips, for the spring season next year. I wish him the best of luck filling his tag with that outfit.
